------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DEAD RISING 2 WORKSHOP GUIDE ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- by Nekketsu86@aol.com DESCRIPTION ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This guide shows the weapon combos in the immediate area of each Workshop (the ones that you can easily rely on everytime you visit them) and where to find each ingredient. Every Workship has at least 2 of these weapon combos available. TERMINOLOGY ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Workshop - the area where you create the weapon combos Ingredients = the tools/items you combine when creating weapon combos Boxes - the area in the left side of the Workshop. Shelf - the area in the right side of the Workshop. Table - the spot where you combine the weapons. Outside - anywhere not inside the double-door area of the Workshop Door - the double-door entrance of a Workshop Just - a very short distance away Far - a large distance away WH - the large storage areas nearby some of the Underground workshops OTHER INSTRUCTIONS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Workshops are named with a 3 character code. The first two refer to the area of Fortune City it is located in. The last is a number used to separate multiple Workshops in one area apart from each other. Usually they are numbered from west to east (Underground workshops are numbered clockwise from the one under Royal Flush Plaza). If there is only one Workshop in an area, it has an "X" instead of a number. "x2" after a weapon combo's name means that there are enough ingredients to make two of them. "2x" before an ingredient's location description means that there are two of them in the same location. "&" separates the discriptions of the different locations of two of the same ingredient. You may not always have enough "ingredients" to make every single weapon combo listed for a Workshop. For example, at SS6, you will have to choose between the Plate Launcher and the Ripper because of the limited amount of Cement Saws available. NOTE: All basic directions (left, right, etc.) are assuming you are facing the object refered to (for things outside the Workshop, directions assume you are facing toward the Workshop's double-doors from the outside). Cardinal directions (north, south, etc.) are relative to the Mall Map. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TABLE OF CONTENTS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ROYAL FLUSH PLAZA ----------------- RF1 -Spiked Bat -Defiler -Drill Bucket -IED RF2 -Electric Chair -Power Guitar RF3 -Drill Bucket -Driller FORTUNE CITY ARENA ------------------ ARX -Pole Weapon -Freezer Bomb AMERICANO CASINO ---------------- AMX -Fountain Lizard -Electric Chair -Air Horn x2 SLOT RANCH CASINO ----------------- SRX -Laser Sword -Infernal Arms -Gem Blower FOOD COURT ---------- FCX -Sticky Bomb -Molotov x2 -Air Horn YUCATAN CASINO -------------- YCX -Pole Weapon -Fire Spitter -Defiler -IED PALISADES MALL -------------- PM1 -Snowball Cannon -Pole Weapon PM2 -Flaming Gloves -Hacker SOUTH PLAZA ----------- SP1 -Plate Launcher -IED SP2 -Paddle Saw -Rocket Launcher -Exsanguinator -Ripper SP3 -Paddle Saw -Exsanguinator -Air Horn -Beer Hat SP4 -Drill Bucket -Auger -Boomstick -Ripper FORTUNE PARK ------------ FP1 -Air Horn -Snowball Cannon FP2 -Electric Rake -Porta Mower FP3 -Dynameat -Knife Gloves SILVER STRIP ------------ SS1 -Rocket Launcher -Roaring Thunder SS2 -IED -Paddle Saw SS3 -Pole Weapon -Rocket Launcher SS4 -Power Guitar -Freezer Bomb SS5 -Laser Sword x2 -Pole Weapon -Knife Gloves SS6 -Plate Launcher x2 -Ripper PLATINUM STRIP -------------- PS1 -Handy Chipper -Molotov x2 PS2 -Parablower -Drill Bucket PS3 -Spiked Bat -IED ALANTICA CASINO ---------------- ATX -Holy Arms -Beer Hat -Molotov UNDERGROUND ----------- UG1 -Beer Hat -Electric Chair -Freezer Bomb -Electric Rake -Parablower UG2 -Blambow x2 -Defiler UG3 -Beer Hat -Snowball Cannon -Super Slicer -Flamethrower UG4 -Plate Launcher -Auger -Defiler UG5 -Spiked Bat -IED UG6 -Defiler -Ripper UG7 -Rocket Launcher -Blitzkreig --------------------------------------------------------- ROYAL FLUSH PLAZA --------------------------------------------------------- ROOM RF1 (westernmost, outside of the safe house) --------------------------------------------------------- Spiked Bat: Baseball Bat -
